Approximately 25% of the grapes for this came from the Grand Cru Clos des Lambrays, from its youngest vines, which are a respectable 20 years old, but which were vinified separately, and not included in the Grand Vin. The wine was assembled with the produce of the plots which have traditionally made up this cuvée : 1st Growths Clos Sorbet, Riottes, and a plot named Le Village. This is bright, garnet purple, with exuberantly fine fragrance. A densely fruity start is well sustained through the middle-palate, with supple, long-lingering aftertaste (2025-2030+).

Winemaker
Domaine des Lambrays
This lovely property was acquired by Bernard Arnault, the head of Louis Vuitton Moët-Hennessy, back in 2015. His portfolio of great wines includes Cheval-Blanc and d’Yquem, so it is not surprising that he lost no time in up-grading, wherever possible, the facilities at Domaine des Lambrays. We have been buying these beautiful wines for three decades, and are full of admiration for the passionate commitment off the new owner and his team. The Clos des Lambrays dates from 1365, the Domaine now being housed in beautiful old buildings, in the heart of Morey-Saint-Denis. The main vineyard covers 8.8 hectares of a single Grand Cru. Although not quite a Monopole (a vineyard in single hands) this is a very large holding of Grand Cru for Burgundy, and allows the estate to eliminate young vine production, or anything unripe or caught by the rain, from its top bottlings.
